Israeli Airstrike Wipes Out Entire Family Of 17 In Eastern Lebanon
Rescue teams are scrambling to search for potential survivors amidst the rubble.
Tragedy struck in eastern Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley on Sunday as an Israeli airstrike devastated a family of 17 in the town of Zboud, according to Lebanese media reports.
Rescue teams are scrambling to search for potential survivors amidst the rubble.
The deadly strike, confirmed by Lebanon’s state news agency NNA, has sent shockwaves through the region. Emergency responders are racing against time to locate anyone who may have survived the devastating attack.
The Israeli army has launched a series of airstrikes on Lebanon, targeting what they claim are Hezbollah strongholds, resulting in devastating consequences.
Since September 23, the attacks have claimed the lives of at least 816 people and left over 2,500 injured, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry.
This escalation is part of a broader conflict that began when Israel launched its war on Gaza, sparked by a cross-border attack by Hamas on October 7 last year, which has tragically taken the lives of nearly 41,600 people, mostly women and children.
Hezbollah has been trading attacks with Israel across the Israeli-Lebanese border. The situation remains volatile, with neither side seeking an all-out confrontation but still engaging in intense exchanges.
The conflict has displaced tens of thousands on both sides of the border and exacted a significant toll in civilian casualties.
The international community is urging restraint, with diplomatic efforts underway to prevent further escalation. The United States has been actively engaged in shuttle diplomacy to de-escalate tensions
